Ovation in Co-Pro Deal for More Designer People

CANNES: Ovation TV has entered into a co-production agreement with Australia’s DemonAngel for a second season of Designer People.

Ovation TV had the exclusive U.S. TV rights to the initial 13-episode first season, which it aired last November. The new episodes from the second season will premiere November 9 as part of Ovation’s "Everything is Art" programming event. The half-hour series highlights the works of a variety of designers, specializing in everything from architecture and fashion to communication, interiors and industrial design.

“We are thrilled to be working with DemonAngel again to bring fresh, new episodes of Designer People to Ovation TV,” said Kris Slava, the senior VP of Ovation TV. “This year, there are even more exciting designers to profile, and more fantasic locations around the world. We have also brought in Amy Devers as our bright and knowledgeable new host. Last year the series performed well for us so we are optimistic that this new season will follow suit.”

“This program couldn’t have a better home than Ovation TV,” commented Ross Close, the managing director of DemonAngel. “The channel features the best the creative world has to offer and draws an audience passionate about art and culture. We are very excited to be working with Kris and his team on the production of the new season and believe this will be our best yet.”
